FOR FARM HANDS.
The Only Safe Way in Which They Can
 Acquire Property and Prosperity.

The Only Safe Way in Which They Can Acquire Property and Prosperity.
 While writing on this subject, 1 have a word for farm hands, as doubtless many of them read your paper. have been an employer of help for nearly thirty years, and as look back, can trace the history of many of the young men who worked for me; and without an exception, those who saved the bulk of their wages have become men Ot property, while those who drew and spent their wages as fast as they were earned, are now living from hand to mouth. I wish I could impress on every farmland who reads this, the importance of saving and safely invest ing part of his wages as soon as he is master of his own time. If you save one hundred dollars the first year you work, it may be worth more to you than a thousand dollars a few years later. l would much rather son of mine should earn by his own labor one hun dred dollars the first year he was his own master, than to have him make one thousand dollars by speculation, and if found that he had saved three fourths of his wages, 1 should feel that his financial future was safe. It is so easy to spend money, and the tempta- tions are so many, that it is only here and there one will save it. have had four hands during the last five years, and but one of them saved dollar on his years work.
 know that it looks like a slow way to get a start in the world to lay up a paltry hundred dollars a year, but he who does it, in few years has enough money to buy team and tools to begin as a renter, or to make payment on a piece of land which will be a home for him. have met at institutes and Oth- CT farm gatherings during the last ten years thousands of the leading farmers of several States, and have often been surprised to find that the best and wealthiest among them began life as farm-laborers, and have fought the bat tie of life single-handed. I have three neighbors now who began as farm hands within twelve years, who worked by the month until they saved five hun dred or six hundred dollars each, and who rented farms, and who have now bought them. They were all young men who took an interest in the work, never thought of the ten hour-pla:n, and whose wages were increased from year to year. When young man is all the time afraid that he will more than earn his wages, he will rarely stay the second year on farm, but when he makes himself indispensable to his employer, he usually stays at advanced pay It took me three years of hard worK tc save three hundred dollars, but those three hundred dollars were worth tc me more than I could possibly have foreseen at that time. There are plenty of openings on the farm for young men of pluck and principls, and the chances of success are as good now as wheE I started.-W F, R"own, i9 Country Gentlemen,
